It was developed according to the political and ideological line of Freedom Road Socialist Organization (ML), and approaches study with an orthodoxy of assumption and content hearkening back to methods promoted during the Stalin-era Comintern (1927-1952). This is in a rather stark contrast to the other approaches advocated in嬀甀爀氀=http://kasamaproject.org/category/kasama-project/study-guides/]Kasama's previous threads on communist theory.[/url]StudyGuideThis topical study guide is intended for all of those interested in learning about the theory and practice of Marxism-Leninism, the science of revolution.Marxism-Leninism is the synthesis and summation of the historic experiences of the revolutionary struggles of working and oppressed people against capitalism and imperialism for more than 160 years, and as such it is a weapon to be used by working and oppressed people in their struggles for emancipation, liberation, and the building of a new world. As Stalin has said, Marxism-Leninism is not a dogma but a guide to action.The focus of the study guide is on the classic眀漀爀欀猀 of the five principal theoreticians of Marxism-Leninism:嬀甀爀氀=http://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/index.htm]Marx[/url],嬀甀爀氀=http://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/index.htm]Engels[/url],Lenin,嬀甀爀氀=http://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/stalin/index.htm]Stalin[/url], and嬀甀爀氀=http://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/index.htm]Mao[/url].Also included are琀栀攀 writings of many other revolutionaries who have creatively applied M-L to the concrete conditions of their countries.The readings have been divided into distinct topics, with the idea that this study guide will mostly be used by individuals for study on their own in tackling particular, concrete problems. Each topic is then subdivided between basic/essential readings and supplementary readings.吀栀攀 selection here has been made洀愀椀渀氀礀 in the interest of finding texts can be grasped quickly and in a practical way.
